| This package provides classes to perform some random draws and |
| statistical anaysis. |
| |
| <p>The aim of this package is to provide the basic components needed |
| to generate random variables (correlated or not in the case of |
| vectorial variables) that could be used in a simulation application |
| and to provide some basic statistical classes in order to analyze the |
| simulation results.</p> |
| |
| <p>Vectorial generators are build by embedding a {@link |
| org.spaceroots.mantissa.random.NormalizedRandomGenerator normalized} |
| scalar generator into the vectorial generator classes {@link |
| org.spaceroots.mantissa.random.CorrelatedRandomVectorGenerator |
| CorrelatedRandomVectorGenerator} or {@link |
| org.spaceroots.mantissa.random.UncorrelatedRandomVectorGenerator |
| UncorrelatedRandomVectorGenerator} that will be responsible for |
| packaging all numbers into vectors with the specified mean values, standard |
| deviations and correlation coefficients. Since most practical problems |
| make the assumption the probability distribution is a gaussian one, |
| the normalized generator will often be an instance of {@link |
| org.spaceroots.mantissa.random.GaussianRandomGenerator |
| GaussianRandomGenerator}, but uniform distribution are also available |
| using instances of {@link |
| org.spaceroots.mantissa.random.UniformRandomGenerator |
| UniformRandomGenerator}.</p> |
